¹THE WORD THAT CAME TO JEREMIAS FROM THE LORD, SAYING,

²Thus speaks the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write all the words which I have spoken to thee in a book.

²Thus speaks the Lord God of Israel, saying, Write all the words which I have spoken to you in a book.

³For, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, when I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel and Juda, said the Lord: and I will bring them back to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall be lords of it.

³For, behold, the days come, says the Lord, when I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel and Juda, said the Lord: and I will bring them back to the land which I gave to their fathers, and they shall be lords of it.

⁴And these are the Words which the Lord spoke concerning Israel and Juda:

⁴AND THESE ARE THE WORDS WHICH THE LORD SPOKE CONCERNING ISRAEL AND JUDA;

⁵Thus said the Lord: Ye shall hear a sound of fear, [there is] fear, and there is not peace.

⁵Thus said the Lord: You⌃ shall hear a sound of fear, [there is] fear, and there is not peace.

⁶Enquire, and see if a male has born a child? and [ask] concerning the fear, wherein they shall hold their loins, and [look for] safety: for I have seen every man, and his hands are on his loins; [their] faces are turned to paleness.

⁷For that day is great, and there is not such [another]; and it is a time of straitness to Jacob; but he shall be saved out of it.

⁸In that day, said the Lord, I will break the yoke off their neck, and will burst their bonds, and they shall no longer serve strangers:

⁹but they shall serve the Lord their God; and I will raise up to them David their king.

¹²Thus saith the Lord; I have brought on [thee] destruction; thy stroke is painful.

¹²Thus says the Lord; I have brought on [you] destruction; your stroke is painful.

¹³There is none to judge thy cause: thou hast been painfully treated for healing, there is no help for thee.

¹³There is none to judge your cause: you have been painfully treated for healing, there is no help for you.

¹⁴All thy friends have forgotten thee; they shall not ask [about thee] at all, for I have smitten thee with the stroke of an enemy, [even] severe correction: thy sins have abounded above all thine iniquity.

¹⁴All your friends have forgotten you; they shall not ask [about you] at all, for I have struck you with he stroke of an enemy, [even] severe correction: your sins have abounded above all your iniquity.

¹⁶Therefore all that devour thee shall be eaten, and all thine enemies shall eat all their [own] flesh. Thy sins have abounded beyond the multitude of thine iniquities, [therefore] they have done these things to thee. And they that spoil thee shall become a spoil, and I will give up to be plundered all that have plundered thee.

¹⁶And they that spoil you shall become a spoil, and I will give up to be plundered all that have plundered you.

¹⁷For I will bring about thy healing, I will heal thee of thy grievous wound, saith the Lord; for thou art called Dispersed: she is your prey, for no one seeks after her.

¹⁷For I will bring about your healing, I will heal you of your grievous wound, says the Lord; for you are called Dispersed: she is your prey, for no one seeks after her.

¹⁸Thus said the Lord; Behold, I will turn the captivity of Jacob, and will have pity upon his prisoners; and the city shall be built upon her hill, and the people shall settle after their manner.

¹⁹And there shall go forth from them singers, [even] the sound of men making merry: and I will multiply them, and they shall not at all be diminished.

²⁰And their sons shall go in as before, and their testimonies shall be established before me, and I will visit them that afflict them.

²¹And their mighty ones shall be over them, and their prince shall proceed of themselves; and I will gather them, and they shall return to me: for who is this that has set his heart to return to me? saith the Lord.

²¹And their mighty ones shall be over them, and their prince shall proceed of themselves; and I will gather them, and they shall return to me: for who is this that has set his heart to return to me? says the Lord.

²³For the wrathful anger of the Lord has gone forth, [even] a whirlwind of anger has gone forth: it shall come upon the ungodly.

²³For the wrathful anger of the lord has gone forth, [even] a whirlwind of anger has gone forth: it shall come upon the ungodly.

²⁴The fierce anger of the Lord shall not return, until he shall execute [it], and until he shall establish the purpose of his heart: in the latter days ye shall know these things.

²⁴The fierce anger of the Lord shall not return, until he shall execute [it], and until he shall establish the purpose of his heart: in the latter days you⌃ shall know these things.
